It was a very long wait, but it was Christmas so that's kind of expected. It was an hour and a half for to-go. The food was OK, I'll probably go back and try something else, but I wouldn't say anything I had was rave worthy. The sesame chicken was a bit chewy put the beef chow was pretty good but lacked a lot of flavor. Decent portion sizes. read more

First visit and we found it delicious. Very nice atmosphere. Great service, delicious food, very clean. We both got the egg rolls. Hubby got sweet and sour chicken and I tried it. It was very tender and flavorful. I got the tangerine chicken and asked if the spice could be on the mild side and they happily accommodated. It was delicious! We will be back. read more

I have eaten at Baoding a handful of times in the past few years. I've always enjoyed the food and occasional cocktail. Today at lunchtime I was very disappointed. I asked if they had crab rangoons. The waitress pointed to the wontons. 10.00. I was served tea and water and the wontons arrived quickly. I think there were eight. I ate a few but noticed there was little to no filling in each wonton. I mentioned this to the waitress politely and she said she'd bring two more. They were the same. My bill arrived. 15.00. I'm not sure what else I was charged for. I think it might be for the two "extra" wontons that I expected would be complimentary. I tipped the waitress 20%. Very disappointing to pay that much for a very poor lunch. read more

This is an authentic Chinese/Asian restaurant. They will customize ordersvto your specifications and can make dishes that, perhaps, you liked while in Asia. They will listen to your description of the dish, figure out what it is and make it for you. Very impressive and will generate a very grateful customer and a big tip. read more

So we've been eating here for 9 years in a row we always dine in every time we go to the mall and today we got to go, and it was probably the worst food I've ever tried in my life when it comes to Chinese I don't know if they got new kitchen staff or they made their ingredients poor quality to save on food cost and up their menu prices. Just one thing their general tsos now has starnes spice in it or some kind of cinnamon flavor to it I don't know what it is, but I don't like it. This is not the same restaurant I've been eating at for all these years. Please go back to cooking the same way you guys used to cook for all these years. It's such a shame. My Chinese place next to my house is not so good. That's why I wouldn't order there from all the time and now that place actually tastes better than this junk. read more

I visited the restaurant with some friends for dinner. Service was efficient and cordial. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. I found the food to be just okay. It took me a while to decide what to order. I finally selected the Hibachi Trio with chicken, shrimp, and beef over veggies (onions, mushrooms, broccoli,, and carrots), with shrimp sauch on the side. I give this dish a 6/10. For my cocktail, I ordered the Chinese Fire Cracker (Grey Goose, Alize Red Passion w/Cranberry juice. I give this drink a 10/10. I won't mind another visit and will order something more traditional. read more

The food is very good. Dining-in is a great experience. But there is no way to order online and it is too expensive. I ordered egg drop soup to go. A pint is $6!! Double the price of other places close by. I ordered here because it was most convenient and my other options are closed on Tuesdays. The soup was good, but not any better than places nearby. I also did not receive any fried wontons for the soup. Just the soup. If you want to charge double, please make it worth it. read more

Wow! Boading is incredible. Easy to see why they've been around for over 30 years. The service was easily the fastest I've ever had! The dumplings were amazing and large! Tons of meat in them and perfect temperature. The Beef Chow Foon was also so good and flavorful. TONS of beef included and a large portion that doesn't break the bank. Highly recommend and I will be back. read more

I am sad to give a one-star review of a restaurant where I've been a loyal customer for over 30 years, but I'm terribly disappointed with the current management. I picked up my takeout order two days ago and the order was wrong. I immediately called and was told they'd issue me a credit. However, when I called today to order takeout and reminded them of the credit, the manager claimed no recollection of the conversation and told me I'm being difficult. I receive hundreds of dollars in gift certificates to this restaurant from my husband each year so I have absolutely no need or desire to scam this restaurant ~ I want it to continue to thrive. I hope the management looks inward to see how they can better manage and maintain cordial customer relationships. read more

When you first walk in, it doesn't look like your typical Chinese restaurant. The neon lighting made the place look a bit eclectic/nightclub-ish. I didn't hate it; it just wasn't what I was expecting. I loved seeing that they serve Chow Fun here because it's hard to find in Charlotte, but I'm not sure why they spell it as "Chow Foon" on their menu. I tried their House Chow Fun, which was supposed to have chicken, shrimp, and pork, but I was quite disappointed in the dish. It certainly did not seem to be worth $17, mostly considering that there was hardly any meat on the dish. Also, by the end of the meal, my plate was glistening with grease. The food isn't bad, it just doesn't seem to match the price. read more

I've been dining at Baoding since the late 90's. We used to be able to make it from the coliseum office park area to SouthPark, eat at BaoDings, and get back to the office in a little over an hour. From 2016-2020 my office was right next door and I ate there probably once a week. Several office mates ate there multiple times a week. Our office closed, but, I take my family there at least once a month, and, meet up with co-workers there from time-to-time. Needless to say, its my favorite restaurant in Charlotte and has been for over 25 years. Ask for Mike or Mae and you are guaranteed to get the best service. The food is always amazing (get the Hibachi Trio) read more

I went here with Ben for lunch on a Tuesday. Parking was chaotic because they are resurfacing the asphalt. Ben has been here many times & recommended the Kung Pao chicken. I got a spring roll for an appetizer which was so tiny, it was gone in 3 bites. I had the House Fried Rice special which comes with chicken, shrimp & pork. It was huge! A ton of rice so I got a 'to go' box. It was all OK. Very disappointing service since it was not even a little busy. read more

Their crispy garlic pork is so good! Everything is very fresh and flavorful. Attentive servers and quality food.

Dinner at Baoding was very enjoyable. We had cocktails, veggie rolls, and sesame chicken.the portions are large and shareable (and still took home leftovers). Maye was our server and she had the best smile. She was very good to make suggestions. We will come back when we are in Charlotte again. read more

Baoding used to be "my" spot for Chinese food when we first moved to Charlotte about 20 years ago. I was excited to take our sons to a former staple on my dining out list. I was disappointed today because this place isn't the same as it once was. The food was just mediocre and the restaurant might not have been remodeled since I was last here. read more

I'm from New York, the home of amazing Chinese food. This gem in Charlotte is better than any Chinese restaurant I've ever had in the Big Apple, or its vicinity. Highly recommend starting with the Szechuan wonton's. They've got a nice mild spice, finished in delicious peanut sauce. The star of the show is the shredded beef. Tender, flavorful, sweet, spicy, NO NOTES! (Not to mention a friendly staff despite a packed restaurant). Can't wait to go back. A+++++. read more

We get take out here very often - sometimes twice a week. The food is so fresh and delicious, and the service is great. Highly recommended!

I like prefacing my reviews with anything I believe might color my opinion one way or the other. So in the spirit of honesty I want to note that I have eaten at Baoding or had Baoding takeout countless times since it opened. Our rehearsal dinner was there. It's a family favorite. It's a SouthPark staple. Still, I decided to review it at last with eyes wide open and as unbiased as possible. We met two friends there and collectively had four appetizers (chilled cucumbers, vegetable dumplings, seaweed salad, and fried string beans) and four main courses (pineapple fried rice, shrimp chow foon, Singaporean rice noodles and mapo tofu). Yes, lots of veggies and lots of leftovers. I have had every one of those dishes in the past and while the seasonings change somewhat depending on the chef, the basic tastes remain the same and the quality is still high...with one notable exception, and I admit I was so disappointed about it I almost knocked off a star! The chilled cucumbers used to be this tantalizing mix of heat from Chinese red peppers, chill from the cucumber slices and a vague sweetness from the brine. But not a single pepper was in sight. I miss the old chilled cucumbers almost as much as the long-gone and much-lamented scallion pancakes. But that's me, and they were still good, so no points off for good food that had changed since last I ate it. Happily, the mapo tofu (my choice of entree) was fabulous, as were other appetizers and entrees (especially the fried rice, best in town) and our waiter, who must have a side job as a stand-up comic, was incredible. What a terrific evening. Is Baoding a perfect Chinese restaurant? No. Like virtually every Asian restaurant in the south, Baoding has modified its offerings to accommodate American tastes in order to survive. So what? Baoding remains a solid place to go for a nice lunch, a family supper, a date night with drinks, takeout on the weekends...because the food, across the years, the service across the years, the experience across the years, is excellent. Long may it reign. But seriously...a few peppers in the chilled cucumbers? For me. read more

Stopped in here for lunch while in the area and had a great experience. Food and service were lightning fast, and I loved the dumplings, cashew chicken, and fried rice we ordered. Everything was hot and fresh, plus the portions are massive. It was super busy during lunch, but I was able to sit at the bar and be served right away. Cool decor and friendly service too. Nothing to not love here! read more

Food consistently good, service impeccable. We use Baoding for take-out only so we can't speak to ambiance.

If you're looking for good traditional (not hipster) Chinese food in Charlotte, this is where you go. It has a lot of energy, the service is good, and the food is strong. Atmosphere is also good, and if you look closely, it maybe used to be a nightclub because it looks like there is something that used to be a DJ Booth in back corner. For food... At first it seems a little ridiculous to spend $7 on cucumbers but it's worth it. A little stronger on the seasoning and it would be a 10 for an appetizer. The Wonton Soup is excellent, but you might need to order two servings if you can eat. The Pork Lo Mein is highly appetizing. You will ask yourself if you love it and then realize it's all gone. The General Tso's Chicken is good. I wouldn't say amazing. I didn't have any Sesame Shrimp, but apparently it needs salt. Either that or it has too much salt. Not sure which. The beer is good. Nice and cold in a clean glass other than a fingerprint or two (like at any traditional Chinese restaurant). read more
